2/5 I'm looking for a GPS device that can do the following: Store
4 points and calculate the surface area inside those four points.
Actually 3 points would be nice too. Does such a thing exist? I'm
trying to measure the size of a plot of land. Thanks.

\_ If you can't calculate the area yourself given the 4 points....
you should turn in your degree.
\_ Do you use a calculator? Don't be a dumbass. I need
accurate answers; that's why there's technology. Maybe you think
we should all go back to an era before computers.
\_ This is a problem better solved on a computer, than on the
GPS unit. So few people would have a need for it. And how
big an area are we talking about? Even with SA off, I
wouldn't use non differential GPS for an area smaller than
an acre, unless you want fake precision.
\_ The land I'm trying to measure range from 10-300 acres.
I want to drive to the four corners of the land and store
the coordinates and then have an answer right away.
And do this on different plots of land. |
